She Can Start With Her Father

[Me.]

1. EXACTLY

it's what I've been saying for days now, ever since she did interviews slamming PJB. And she was right there with her father in this endeavor.

[Texaswitchy]

2. She needs to shut up.

Her daddy made a lot of money from this.

Liz thinks we have short memories

[crickets]

3. This, a million time this. nt

[Texaswitchy]

4. Halliburton

Went to a protest in Houston by the hotel the shareholders were meeting at.

Two protests


The second one the police turned violent.

I have the video.

I was almost killed by a cop on horseback.

Tried to slam me into a wall with his horse.

Another protester pulled me out of the way just in time.

I remember her daddy alright.

The police were out of control.

[crickets]

6. Halliburton and KBR made out like bandits in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Good on you for protesting, Texaswitchy. Glad to hear you survived.

[Texaswitchy]

9. Came close.

Real close.

I was video taping with my then state of the art high 8 video camera.

I had video taped the start of the police attacking the protesters.

That is why I was attacked.

The guy that saved me was about 6' 7".

Yank me right off the ground into the air

The cop and horse slammed into the wall.

One cop parked his horse on a woman's foot and wouldn't back off. Broke her foot.

They were pulling young guys from the sidewalk and arresting them.

We won the battle.

We didn't leave.

Shut up Liz your Daddy is thrash.

12. so Liz is no longer the darling of the Dems?...oh my!

just because she voted yes on impeachment #2, sits on the January 6 committee, and overtly hates Trump, Kevin McCarthy, and Jim Jordan, that doesn't make her a saint...she voted against impeachment #1, voted with Trump over 90% of the time..and she was very quick to bash Biden for Daddy's Epic Fail...we Dems have to stop canonizing Republicans who have rare moments of lucidity...Adam Kinzinger, I'm talking about you, too!!

[diverdownjt]

17. Very good points agingdem.....

[gratuitous]

7. Yep, Halliburton was not doing well in 2001

And Dick Cheney's deferred compensation was in danger of going unpaid (not that Unka Dick hadn't already been paid quite well during his time at Halliburton). But it sure was Unka Dick's lucky day when his boss (heh) Dubya decided to invade Afghanistan and Halliburton was in line for some of those sweet defense contracts.

But all of that is now ancient history and Daughter Dearest doesn't know anything about any of that.

5. I don't think Liz Cheney gives a wooden nickel for what we think

She's playing for the hearts and minds of her Repuke voters. That is all.

[Hekate]

8. Psst, Liz: don't call attention to yourself on this matter; we almost liked you for a moment. nt

[lunatica]

18. She doesn't care

She doesn’t have a heart! Just like father.

[Ford_Prefect]

10. Along with all the PNAC authors and trolls...Doug Feith and his Neo-Con posse.

[sprinkleeninow]

11. Colin Powell. eom

[Texaswitchy]

16. Lied his ass off.

Weapons of mass destruction.

[rickyhall]

13. Her daddy the war criminal?

[Texaswitchy]

14. Yes

Him.

All those no bid contracts.

[IronLionZion]

15. As long as her family got fabulously wealthy from it

I doubt she cares that she's going to lose her primary to someone more Trumpy.

[Rebl2]

19. Absolutely!

[barbtries]

20. damn straight. nt

[Volaris]

21. Ohhhh, dear, sweet girl lol...the article says 'when Bin Laden escaped'...

Heres the thing tho...he didnt escape. His ass was trapped outright in Tora Bora, and he was allowed to leave via dint of her own old man deciding he wasnt worth killing.

So heres how we gonna handle this:
When Liz is correct, shes gonna get credit for being Not Wrong.

When shes INcorrect, she can be ttreated EXACTLY THE SAME as all the other idiots in her party that cant tell the difference between fantasy and reality

Welcome to the real world, Liz. Hope you enjoy your time with us.
